    Great result in the end. Played okay first half but looked like we wouldn’t score. Second half at times was breathtaking. Well done PB for scoring but if he has missed those there was something truly amiss the cross from
    Ayling was a peach.

    Let’s hope they go on another run of wins and build up a cushion as think the teams around us will continue to drop points.

    We have had some shockers in terms of decisions but sometimes think too much is made of that - part of the rub of the green - sport is not an exact science.
    You espouse a spirit of tolerance, but as with BB (and others), you cant resist a dig at "certain people". Consistent I'll give you, just not quite as high-minded as you set out to be (why make the comment at all?).

    It was indeed a good end result, and certain players showed they can deliver, I imagine we all want that to continue, let's hope it does.

    So Pete, your definition of a "real fan" is someone who unquestioningly applauds players simply because they have been selected to play for the 1st team, is that right?

    So when we lose, as we have too often of late, a "supporter" would applaud that and hope we do better next time?

    Do you think that the half time chat yesterday was full of backslapping and expressions if sympathy that we didnt score? I suspect not, and if its good enough for Bielsa to give the players HE selected to play a cricket I see nothing wrong with SUPPORTERS doing the same. You presumably think otherwise?

    Like u said Pete, take the blinkers off. I don't berate everything, now or in that past, just that which I don't agree with or find unacceptable in terms of team performance.

    Were you unquestioning in your support of Bates, GFH, or Cellino as owners? I suspect not, so does that mean you're not a "real" supporter ? I don't think so

    As for looking forward, its only a small thing but have a look at the predictions for Millwall and who forecast a win, not many.

    I'll try and simplify for you.

    1. I do not "berate everything Leeds do" and if you took the blinkers off and had a look at what I actually wrote then you would see that because it's TRUE.

    2. You seem to define a "true supporter" as unquestioning in support for the players simply because the manager/coach has selected them to play, irrespective of their performance, and for the owner and exec simply because they are the owner/exec, ditto as to performance. So did you support all of what Bates, GFH and Cellini did, or all the players they brought in? If not, are you a "true supporter"?

    3. Despite what you say about my support of the club, I'm one of the few who forecast a win yesterday, did you?

    Just get bored when it descends into bickering tbh - we all need some of Clive’s positive outlook
